The movie is an adaptation of the novel of the same name by Philip Roth. Director Arnaud Desplechin had read the book and gave copies of it to the crew of My Sex Life... or How I Got Into an Argument (1996). For the DVD bonuses of Kings & Queen (2004), he shot and played in the final scene opposite Emmanuelle Devos. Roth saw the bonus and called him to tell him to adapt the book into a movie. He tried over the years but failed, and even thought of doing it as a play with actor Denis Podalydès. Eventually, he tried again during the spring 2020 lockdown in France, and something clicked.
One of the four movies presented at the 2021 Cannes Film Festival in which Léa Seydoux stars.
This is the second time Lea Seydoux will be in an Arnaud Desplechin film, the first was Oh Mercy.
The movie was shot in the September 2020, between the first and second waves of the COVID-19 pandemic in France, with only a few actors and a very tight budget: 153,000 EUR at the start of post-production.
